USGS Topo · Published 1970About this map
The Clinch River carves a deep path through Scott County, dictated by the massive geological formations of Clinch Mountain and Stock Ridge. This terrain necessitated incredible engineering by the Southern and Clinchfield railroads, visible in the numerous bores like Starnes Tunnel, Clinchport Tunnel, and the Twin Tunnels. The famous Natural Tunnel serves as a centerpiece, accompanied by an observation platform where the rail line passes through the massive limestone aperture.
